I have played countless of hands of blackjack. I started working my way into the gambling dens when I was sixteen. I have enjoyed online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a little while. With all that said I have still spent a lot of cash at twenty-one. The gambling halls have made it basically impossible to defeat the casino.
I still like the game and wager on a regular basis. Over this time period I have played a type of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You definitely will not get rich with this method or beat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This method is centered on the fact that blackjack appears to be a game of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you are NOT!
I play basic strategy twenty-one. When I don’t win I bet the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I lose again I wager the table minimum on the successive hand again etc. Once I win I take the payout paid to me and I bet the original wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I win again I take the winnings paid to me, and if I win the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original wager. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the bet back down to the original value.
I am very strict and do not "chicken out". It gets extremely thrilling on occasion. If you win a few hands in series your wagers go up very quick. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had fantastic streaks a couple of times now. I departed a $5 table at the Wynn a few years ago with $750 after 35 mins using this method! And a couple of days ago in Macau I left a game with $1200!
You have to understand that you can squander much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more exciting. And you will be astonished at the runs you witness playing this way. Here is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.
Bet five dollar
Take $5 paid-out to you, leave the initial $5 wager
Wager $5
Leave 5 dollar paid to you for a total bet of ten dollar
Bet $10
Take 10 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial ten dollar bet
Bet 10 dollar
Leave $10 paid to you for a total bet of 20 dollar
Wager 20 dollar
Take 20 dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial 20 dollar wager
Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid to you for a total wager of 40 dollar
Bet 40 dollar
Take forty dollar paid-out to you, leave the initial $40 wager
Bet forty dollar
Leave 40 dollar paid to you for a total bet of eighty dollar
Wager 80 dollar
Take $80 paid-out to you, leave the initial $80 bet
Wager 80 dollar
Leave eighty dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of one hundred and sixty dollar
Bet one hundred and sixty dollar
Take $160 paid to you, leave the initial 160 dollar wager
If you departed at this moment you would be up $315 !!
It’s herculean to go on a streak this long, but it does happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your wager or the final result won’t be the same.
